About our home
Searching for a house in Southern California for Thanksgiving 2023.
This is our family home and is perfect for families with children. Cole Valley is a charming neighborhood full of restaurants and cafes next to the Golden Gate Park, Haight Ashbury and an easy 15 min access to downtown thanks to the N Judah train.
For swaps, we usually pay for one cleaning and ask our guests to pay for another one (before and after the stay) - $120.

“Nous avons adoré la maison de Marie qui nous a permis de redécouvrir SF dans des conditions au top. Une maison victorienne authentique fraîchement rénovée avec goût, spacieuses et très bien équipée avec un extérieur BBQ super cosy. Elle est située dans l’un des plus beaux quartiers de SF « the Cole valley » :Je confirme :) Au grand calme tout en étant près de tout. Nous avons adoré la vie du quartier avec son très complet grocery store ( luke´s Local ) et ses bars restaurants plein de vie. Sa proximité avec le golden park pour des ballades/ footings magiques. Sans oublier,à deux pas le mythique quartier Haight Ashbury. Merci Marie pour ses échanges et son super accompagnement qui nous a permis de profiter pleinement de la maison. Nous garderons un EXCELLENT souvenir familiale de cette expérience made in California”
“Our experience at Marie’s home couldn’t have been better. Not only is her apartment gorgeous, full of light and spacious but the neighborhood she lives in is so lovely and comfortable. We are from Brooklyn so we love a walking city, her flat has tons of great restaurants right in the neighborhood and super easy access to public transportation. Marie was so gracious, easy-going and available if needed. Her place is a true gem.”
“Maries Home is just wonderful. The moment you get there you will feel at home in this lovely San Francisco neighbourhood. Quiet, spacious, comfortable, light filled spotless apartment with views out the kitchen window toward Twin peaks. It is a short walk up hill behind their house to Twin peaks which is really worth it for the views. Downhill brings you to Haight street and Golden gate park which extends to the ocean. A couple of blocks away the N Judah propels you downtown in no time. This is an ideal home to stay in. Thanks to Marie for her generosity, easy communication and hospitality. ”
“Nous sommes restés une semaine avec nos 3 enfants chez Marie. La maison est magnifique et très agréable a vivre, super bien équipée, propre et décorée avec beaucoup de gout. Le cartier est génial, vraiment tout ce que l'on attendait de San Francisco : maisons typiques, commerces bio à proximité, transports juste à coté, promenade à pied jusqu’au Golden Gate Park... un séjour de rêve et la maison de Marie a beaucoup contribué a cela. Je recommande cette propriété sans aucune hésitation! Mille merci, Marie, de nous avoir prêter votre maison.”
“Merveilleux séjour dans cette maison magnifique et idéalement placée au coeur de SF. Merci encore pour ses vacances inoubliables”
“We had a beautiful experience in San Francisco. The house was located in a safely and very nice residence area near the USF. Marie and her husband were excellent hosts and in spite of being out of town they were very heedful to answer our doubts. Also they gave us tips to visit the best restaurants and the most important sites of the city. In general, our trip was lovely and staying in their house was a crucial factor for it to happen. Thank you so much for welcoming us to your charming home.”
“We had a great stay at Marie's place in Cole Valley. Her apartment is wonderfully light and well-appointed. It's very easy to get downtown on the NJudah line and there are plenty of great restaurants and cafes locally if you feel like staying closer to home. The master bedroom has the most comfortable bed imaginable and the kitchen is well stocked, with everything you'll need. Marie really helped us out by offering us a points swap when our initial exchange fell through. Thanks Marie and thanks, lovehomeswap. A fantastic property in a beautiful part of the city.”
“This was my first international exchange and it could not have been better! We so thoroughly enjoyed meeting that we have kept in touch and I would love to see the whole family again❤️”

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
Would it be going too far to call Cole Street an urban haven? Possibly. But after spending time in this Cole Valley neighborhood, chatting with the cordial independent-business owners here and noting the relaxed pace of this family-oriented community, you'll wonder. And then there's the food - Asian fusion cuisine, crepes, specialty cheeses, Provencal fare and French pastries - as well as the practical local market and hardware store.
Perfectly connected to the Golden Gate Park as well as public transportation.
